Here's the recipe if you're keen......otherwise we can just have chai and people can bring things. It's more about the seeds isn't it?...so whatever's easy for you I reckon.
Soak dates in boiling water til mushy. Drain water off. Then mash them with a fork.
Add: Tahini, cocoa or carob powder, small amount of honey, chopped nuts or rice puffs, (LSA is an option) coconut if too sticky, and roll into balls in coconut...then refrigerate to make solid.
Easy as.
If you would like to take over organisation for this seed and seedling swap, please do! I contacted Jane at Waimarie yesterday to request their garden on Nov 6th but I have not heard back from her yet.
My thinking is that there are quite a few spaces around Hamilton that would potentially be friendly hosts - Waimarie and the Environment Centre, but also the Fairfield Community House (which has a great organic garden), perhaps the Permaculture Backyard at the Ham Gardens and Greenspace in Te Aroha Street, and I am sure there are lots more! - and we could move the Seed and Seedling Swap around different venues as a way of encouraging connection and networking amongst ourselves and reaching out to people and groups we haven't met yet.
Old Farm Road sounds excellent, by the way!
Thanks,

No thanks!! He he. I was just trying to support and be helpful by offering my space which is a communal yoga space anyway, as it seemed a bit risky to only have the Waimarie outside area in this time of year with the cold winds and rain....also it wasn't confirmed at that stage either...so I wanted to save you any more hassle. I didnt know the other options were available too. I think it's a great idea to rotate the venues for sure. Maybe when we meet we can nominate the next person to do the organising? And then rotate that job too! ?
I understand it is a nightmare organising things like this electronically. I do it all the time with my work, so cant take on another venture! Look forward to meeting everyone.

If that sounds okay to you, could you let me know the number Old Farm Road? Otherwise, let me know what your preferences are and I will adhere to those.
I will bring some supplies for labelling of plants/seeds!
Best,

We are at 154 Old Farm Rd, Hamilton East. Right turn Off Cameron Rd. Park down the driveway. Look for a big old villa. Circulate garden once to find us inside or out!
I have been donated a huge bag of beautiful purely organic heirloom seeds from Parito Coastal Yoga Retreat to gift out. It's exciting!!!!!!!!!!
I think it's great to open up to the wider community and shifting our venues may well do this.
Do I even need to mention that we are a smoke free zone?
Warm Regards
